this is how "the washington post" described the president's leadership back in july. i'm not going to take away your guns, obama promised in september of 2008. however, he advocated closing a loophole that allows for gun purchases without background checks at gun shows and for reinstating the assault weapons ban. obama kept his promises to gun owners but not to gun control advocates. the president signed bills allowing guns in national parks and on amtrak. he has not pushed for the restatement of the assault weapons ban nor closed the gun show loophole. has the president failed to lead? >> i'm not going to comment on that. he will have a bill to lead on because i'm going to introduce the bill in the senate and the same bill will be introduced in the house. a bill to ban assault weapons. it will ban the sale, the transfer, the importation, and the possession. not retro actively, but perspectively. and it will ban the same for big clips, drums or strips of more than 10 bullets. so there will be a bill. we've been working on it now for a year. we've tried to take my bill

john bolton is joining us from washington, d.c. you obviously have experience as an ambassador. what would you have done differently up up to now? >> there is very little evidence that the state department, behind the scenes or in public has given the case the serious attention that it deserves. obviously with respect to jon hammar himself, this is outrageous, he tried to follow the procedures that are required to bring a firearm into mexico. it was obviously not intended for use. but for display purposes. we can say what's happened to him. the particular facts of this case are outrageous, in and of themselves. but there is a larger issue here. i think it has to do with the mexican governments blaming the united states for part of its drug cartel problem. you know, their view is it's all of these american firearms flooding mexico, illegally. i fear that the obama administration has been sympathetic to that charge for the last four years. i think that was one of the motivations of the fast & furious operation. so that, i am worried that the administration has given jon hammar's c
